The Declaration of Independence is NOT the law of the land. The Pledge of Allegiance is not the law of the land. The Star Spangled Banner is not the law of the Land. Lincoln's Gettysburg Address is not the law of the land. The Ten Commandments are not the law of the land. The Cub Scout Oath is not the law of the land. The Constitution is. The Constitution, in the Preamble, sets forth the five obligations of "we the people", collectively, on behalf of all of us:

establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity,
